At least the car I saw one day with the plate VN VD VC avoided the trap of Greek letters in Latin quotes.

@Sobtanian A Nordic favorite is also when letters like ä, ö, å are used in place of similarly looting letters to make it more cool.

"Sphyrt" sounds like a word part from German philosophy.

"Sphyrtentwicklung"

@kaffeehaeferl @SnoopJ @Elizafox @Daveography it's all greek to me

@Elizafox I hate these fake things so much because they explicitely only work for the ignorant and the creators either are or assume the audience is. There is so much of that in "cyrillic" also.

On an unrelated note, have you seen the snejapowul diajaies

@apzpins @Sobtanian yeah all the not-Nordic bands with names written like that because aesthetics if my bf says it looks cool I will usually start pronouncing the *aesthetic* letters as I would in Swedish in an otherwise Polish or English word

@Elizafox @jlapoutre So a Hitler-loving, ancient-alien-worshipping toddler, then.

@apzpins i am guilty of this for names in World of Warcraft when the name is already taken

[titia@toot.community]

@apzpins @Sobtanian we always pronounced "Stargåte" the Swedish way for fun. (Approximately star-gaw-tay)

@apzpins @Sobtanian

How about the clothes' label "Napapijri"? It is the Finnish word for Arctic Circle, with one letter swapped for another for no good reason.
And then it has the flag of Norway.

@Tuuktuuk It seems to be a Swiss company doing Nordic weeaboo. No surprise they just smashed everything Nordic together and it was as authentic to their customer base as the tattoos in Kanji that say absurd things.
